' fourth instalment into the Syberia series is an important milestone, which marks Kate Walker's 20th anniversary, as well as being the first Syberia game to launch without series' creator Benoît Sokal, who passed away early last year. We recently spoke with
While Syberia 3 was announced in 2009, it wasn't until 2012 that work actually began on the project due to various contractual reasons, and fans wouldn't see its release until 2017. Unlike the previous two entries, Syberia 3 launched to a mixed response from the community."One of the mistakes we made with Syberia 3, was that we released all of the game's versions at the same time," Lagravette said."We were way too small a team for that.
One of the more modern elements implemented in Syberia: The World Before is its use of puzzle sequences, which require you to switch between the present-day Walker and a young pianist from the past, Dana."It was something we put a lot of attention into, and I was like, 'oh, is it going to work? Are people going to understand that it's not like time travelling, in which you create a paradox?'" Lagravette said.
"We were amazed, really, with the reception we had with The World Before, which was critically acclaimed from the press, but also from the players," Lagravette said."We have amazing scores on Steam, you know, like 92% positive reviews, I think. Even in my wildest dreams, I didn't think we would achieve that, at least not so fast."
